If you didn’t manage to secure one of the 1,500 GR Corolla Circuit Editions coming to America in 2023, you can rest a little easier as Toyota has announced the model will return for 2024.

In a short statement, Toyota’s Michael Tripp said “We are seeing a ton of enthusiasm and excitement for the GR Corolla, especially the Circuit Edition.”  He added, “When Toyota GR fans speak, we listen and our plans are to increase GR Corolla volume and continue offering the Circuit Edition as part of the GR Corolla lineup in 2024.”

Full details will be released later this year, but the 2023 GR Corolla Circuit Edition will arrive at U.S. dealerships this spring and cost $42,900.  It builds on the standard hatch and features a bulging hood, a forged carbon fiber roof, and a massive rear wing.  Buyers will also find 18-inch alloy wheels that are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires and backed up by a high-performance braking system with red calipers.

 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition Returning For 2024

Other highlights include front and rear limited-slip differentials, a Morizo-signed shifter, and Brin Naub heated sport seats with red accents.  They’re joined by a heated steering wheel, an eight-speaker JBL premium audio system, and a wireless smartphone charger.

Of course, the car is most notable for featuring a turbocharged 1.6-liter three-cylinder engine that develops 300 hp (224 kW / 304 PS) and 273 lb-ft (370 Nm) of torque.  It’s paired to a six-speed manual transmission and a GR-Four all-wheel drive system, which offers adjustable power splits of 60:40, 50:50, and 30:70. This means the car can be front biased, neutral, or rear biased at the twist of a knob.

Toyota said some of the features will carryover for 2024 and noted they’re also considering extending production of the Circuit Edition to “2025 and beyond.”
